New to Panerai

I'm in the market, but new to Panerai and can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I thought the experts here might be able to point me in the right direction.

I'm in love w/ the new PAM01662, but it's a 44mm and I can't pull that off.

I'd like a 40mm case with a grey or anthracite dial like the 01662. I'd prefer a sandwich or waffle dial, no date and a brushed steel case.

Non-existent unicorn? Can anyone help me get close? Thanks.

I like the new Quaranta, but they're not grey/anthricite. I may still go take a look...

Have you tried the 01662? Historically they are big watches and they’re meant to fill the wrist.
There are some early 40mm pieces and there are some modern 38mm but in my opinion look a bit underwhelming even on a female wrist.

If you want 40mm then Panerai is not for you. It's not for everyone and that's part of the appeal.

Um no. If you want a 40mm Panerai, the 40mm Quaranta is precisely for you. Part of the appeal is there are many sizes to choose from.

Why do you believe you can’t pull off 44mm?
